Been standin' in the corner
Studying the lights
The dreaming of escape will keep you up at night
But someone had put the flares up
And got me in the rays
So I guess I'd better stay
"Uh, uh, no come on", you say
It's a fool's gold thunder
It's just a warring rain
Don't let the fears just start
"what if I won't see you again"
Around here you never want to sleep all night
So start falling in love, start the riot and
Come on rage with me
We don't need words
And we'll be birds
Got to make our own key
Only got this moment
You and me
Guilty of nothing
But geography
Come on and raise it, come on, raise this noise
For the million people who got not one voice
Come on, it's not over, if you mean it, say loud
Come on all for love, out from the underground
Away with me
We don't need words
Close your eyes and see
And we'll be birds
Flying free
Holding on in the mystery
Fearless, fearless through this
You said, "We'll go, oh, oh, oh
Through this together" Oh, oh, oh, yeah
When you fly, won't you
Won't you take me, too?
In this world so cruel
I think you're so cool
